Izzo acts like an entitled jerk. Always berating the refs and his own players. And all his players can do is play bully-ball. Thar's his coaching style

I understand his players love him. There’s nothing wrong with a coach that yells unless you’re an incredibly soft athlete.

Marquette was down 21 to Butler but has come storming back, now down by 5 at the under 8

18 Marquette coming back in the second half at Butler, now down 4 after being down 15 or so at the half.

Make that 6: 72 - 66 with 4:13 to go.

RU will be rough, but we are better than Wisconsin, especially if we’re on. A game like our first half at Purdue and we will win…like our second half…we’ll be tied for the BIG lead.

Not if Purdue and Wisky lose again.

OSU vs. UM — Tell me who I’m rooting for. I think OSU just to confirm UM isn’t “back,” right?

I try not to look until the games are over, or to pick winners from the competing teams.
The cream always rises to the top. The best team usually wins. I'm hoping it'll be us.

But I just don't want to see Michigan getting any momentum going into the Tournament.

And Underwood says they have the same coaching style and philosophy. Not arguing with you, but I wonder how other fanbases see underwood. On the other hand I don’t give a crap what they think!

How far does Houston fall in the rankings. Memphis and SMU are not even equal to Rutgers on a nightly basis

I think most of them see BU yelling and making faces on the sidelines, and peg him as a rager. Good thing we - and more importantly, his players - know otherwise.
(Looking for gif of Belo jumping on BU’s back…)

What the heck happened to Iowa State? Went from undefeated and ranked in the top 10 to losing at home to Kansas State and being last place in the Big 12.

I would hope they would fall at least 10 spots but think they should be 21-25ish

Weber doing just enough not to get fired. I feel bad for KSU.

I think he is the only coach in their history to win a Big 12 title and he did it twice. He also took them to the elite 8 one of the only 2 times in the last 30 years. That is not a great basketball program and they are lucky to have him imo. Weber also won 2 outright Big Ten titles and 2 Missouri Valley championships. How many coaches have won multiple titles for 3 different conferences? I really don't understand all the hate for Weber considering what he did for us. I blame Paul Klee for all the hate. Klee really didn't like Weber and was such a good writer that he somehow convinced most of Illini Nation that the ONLY coach in modern history to take the Illini to a championship game and holds the Illini record for wins in a season, was a bad coach. With all that said I am happy that we ended up with BFU but still...

Watched the Purdue game with my nephew who is a Purdue fan. He commented that "our coach looks intimidating".

Yup. We talk about Purdue, Wisc, and MSU as our competition (to win the Conference), but OSU is quietly right there in the race.
